Anyone get a great deal on a premium want to share your distributed with me? Pm me.. I think I have a very fair deal but checking. Going to play a friends tomorrow and decide.
Had another game last night with a shot from the cannon at the bell. Missed again, arrrrgh.
Guess I will have to practice that shot when it does not count so I can get my big jackpot. 
Quoted from Mando:Every since my friend upgraded to 1.52 all his inserts change color like crazy . Anyone see this?
No. The color changing insert code is not implemented in 1.52 yet

You sure you weren't just seeing things because you were on psychedelics? 
Quoted from jalpert:What do you mean his inserts change color like crazy?
From what I understand the clear inserts like the "notes" are cycling through colors. In the single lamp test, multiple lamps are responding and soing so incorrectly. I have confirmed to them that my BiB is not acting at all like this. During games, my RGB LEDs are white and they can be controlled individually in the single lamp test.

When are you meant to shoot the bell with the canon? I shoot the flashing targets.

Only for the super. Bell will be flashing instead of the standups and DMD will say something like "shoot the bell for super jackpot".

You assume correct. Even in the single lamp test they are all on and cycling. Just before I left they stopped working all together 
There is a little board that controls them..guessing it may be bad he put a call into stern. Really made the game hard to play, yet it was still super fun, thats a good sign! 
My shaker motor will be here on Tuesday. Can't wait to try it out.
Speaking of the music notes and the color LED's.
All of my music notes are white except for every so often the left ramp music note insert will turn a teal blue. Does this happen for everybody, and if so what is it supposed to mean?

That's not normal. A buddy had a similar problem (his was always teal blue) and Stern had to send him a light board to fix.
Quoted from Mando:Also is the shaker worth it or not ?
I added a shaker to my TRON and I LOVE IT
I would also add a powered EXT Sub

The price fluctuates but you can get it for $100 shipped. This along with the shaker is AWESOME !!!

Thanks. I will give Stern a call on Monday.

I def like this over TRON
Quoted from Tommi_Gunn:Hyped for a 6.3K game. 3 place after IM and Tron imo. Play before you pay. If you're in AZ, good luck shipping in 110+ degrees, that's all I have to say. Keep your fingers crossed.
I def like AC/DC over Tron...IM is a great game too but that thing is going for 5K in good shape and has no where near the toys of a brand spanking new AC/DC just saying I will call them even. Though I probably prefer AC/DC myself.
I just had a heart pumping game scoring 212 Mil. After my first Album MB the Album MB Insert stayed on continuously. Why? Did I get the Super Jackpot?
My Song choice was Hells Bells, Thunderstruck, Rosie, BIB and You shook me.
Im seriously thinking of having both ACDC Pro and Premium in my line up. They are really different. Prem has cool toys and changing GI. Pro has BLAZING speed. Which I love. (fastest pin on planet award...Show me one thats quicker.) And for the money the best bang for buck.
Quoted from Gorgar1:MB insert stay on?
Load the cannon and shoot the bell for a Album multiball jackpot . Good stuff .

Really! I have to do that again!

David you crack me up wanting to keep both Did you open your NIB pro?? I am leaning towards the premium right now I just see so many possibilities with the extra toys and color changing inserts!

The drag from the hand is no worse than the cannon. I have owned both. JM still has not been dethroned and JD is also faster than ac/dc. While ac/dc is fast ask anyone who has had time on JM and ac/dc and the clear answer is still JM. JD's upper pf is lighting fast let alone the cycle loops. I love ac/dc but you asked show me faster and i have time and time again. You can not tell from videos.
The mode start saucer is no different in JM then the Juke in ac/dc I have seen lots of people stall the ball out for the whole 10 seconds to pick a song.
AC/DC is a great game but it has not dethroned any of the top contenders in the speed department.
You also said bang for the buck speed. JD takes this throne on any game as its still sub 900 in my parts.
Quoted from Gorgar1:How do i actually get the MB insert to stay lit? I've had it happen but didn't know how I did it lol
Peter
Get the SJP for ALBUM. Right now its the only SJP in the game.
What? The claw is lame. Does it shoot the ball. Acdc pro smokes it! Ball is totally wild half the time. And always coming back to you! Can I get a second opinion. Akuma I love your posts but the videos show the truth.
Jd is no comparison either. That dead world is boring also. Time waster that breaks a lot. Theme is well u know.
Show me a faster pin. Bsd maybe. Standups in the middle. F14. Maybe.
There is a difference between out of control wild like ac/dc and organized flow like JM or JD or even T2 or Roller Games. Just because the ball flails around randomly does not make it fast it makes it out of control.
If you think ac/dc is fast god save you from when you play a properly setup JM or JD

I played the pro at the NW pinball show to compare and I did not find it was any faster than my premium. What do you think is there to slow the ball down in the premium that's not there in the pro? Certainly you're not citing things like occasionally hitting a real bell or the lower playfield.
Acdc has flow galore. I'm talking ball velocity. Aka speed. The time between contact with the ball.
Acdc pro is so fast you barely have time to look at the display. Literally. This also makes for short ball times. Kicks you in the balls.
Pro is more pure pinball gameplay. No upper playfield. No dead world or claw toy. No vid mode yet. Just fast combos targets and loops. With cannon fire requiring you to remove ur hand from the flipper button in the middle.
Love it.
